Jordà denounces that Gabriel Rufián cannot go out: "He lives a convent life"

The Republican Esquerra deputy Teresa Jordà denounced this Wednesday that her parliamentary spokesperson Gabriel Rufián, who will speak this afternoon in the investiture debate of Pedro Sánchez, "cannot go out on the street" due to the climate of tension that exists in Madrid over the agreements between the PSOE and the Catalan independence parties and in particular for the amnesty for the events of the process.

A few hours before the start of the debate in the Congress of Deputies, Esquerra's number two in Madrid has assured RAC1 on the El Món program that "Rufián cannot go out on the street, he lives a convent life" and has revealed that he has He had to work on the speech he will deliver in a few hours from his hotel room because in his opinion it would be a threat to leave the hotel.

"Rufína has been receiving insults and threats for a long time and the life he lives in Madrid is almost like a convent," insisted Jordà, who lamented that in recent years there has been a "hostile climate towards the spokesperson." "We have already suffered insults, threats."

“We have arrived earlier to avoid problems upon arrival. "It is the first time that we have required security," Jordà added. "There has been no choice," she justified after being surprised that Congress is "a bunker." The Republican leader explained that the deputies from her group have met at a specific time to go together to the Lower House.

Regarding the climate of tension, Jordà has denounced "an absolutely out of touch, uncomplexed display of the Spanish reactionary forces" and has accused the PP of competing with Vox in "radicalism" which, in his opinion, "is generating a climate of hate". "It is very inappropriate for that time. I want to think that when the investiture debate is over this will go down, but who knows," he added.
